Genius Magician Who Eats Medicine Episode 672
Random Box (7)
“Three. two. one.”
Awesome!!
“…!!”
“Go again. three. two. one.”
Duduk!!
“Ouch…!!”
Belver, who rolled his eyes, let out a scream unbearably.
Grasping his forehead with both hands, he fell backwards.
“I can’t do this anymore with my fucking feet!!”
Belver screamed with his face swollen as if he had been beaten.
Lennok sat down in front of Velver and shrugged his shoulders with his fingers raised.
“I told you. You have to get the timing right.”
Lennok said, putting his finger in front of the fallen Belver.
“Tell me again. I’ll move my fingers on the count of three, so all I have to do is turn my head in the other direction.”
“….”
“three. two. one.”
The moment Lennok said that and raised his finger up.
Belver’s head also moved along with that finger.
“Wrong.”
Keying!!
At the same time as mana is gathering at the fingertips, I chant shock magic.
As it was, it fell on Belver’s forehead as an intense night.
bang!!
A roar like cracking walnuts.
“…!!”
“Ahahaha!!”
His twin Belita, who was watching from the side, burst into a hearty laugh and Belver collapsed.
“Van is really strange. How do you keep matching without using magic?”
“There is a way.”
Lennok didn’t care and raised a finger between his brows again.
“Go again. three. two.”
“Ah Okay. Got it!! I’ll admit it!!”
“What?”
Belver replied softly, as if he was ashamed to confess it.
“It doesn’t work…no that… … It doesn’t get easily avoided.”
“Before you admitted that, you had to receive shock magic with your forehead over ten times.”
Lennok said calmly.
“You think you are vulnerable to psychological warfare or fighting, but the biggest problem lies in the gap between athletic ability and reaction speed.”
“….”
“It is nothing unusual. A person with physical abilities who handles heavy weapons. It’s something that could happen in theory to a superman who frequently uses weight-lifting.”
“It could happen…?”
“Aren’t you forcibly inflating the weight of your body by using magical energy momentarily to deal with a serious illness?”
Lennok continued without waiting for Belver’s reply.
“Because mana is squeezed between blood vessels and muscles and inflated, the speed of blood flow slows down and the nervous system is stressed. As a result, the reaction is not following little by little.”
“….”
“It may not be noticeable in everyday life, but the more you concentrate and immerse yourself like now… … As time slowly slows down… … .”
Lennok tapped his temple and laughed.
“Your body and mind are becoming distant.”
Only then did Belver realize the seriousness of the problem, and his face hardened.
Belita also stared at Lennok’s mouth with a face that had lost her smile.
“In battle, you may have bridged it with your strength and tenacity, but one day the gap will become so severe that it will hold your ankle. It probably won’t be far.”
“…What should I do?”
“Simple. Just like now, you can start with training that closes the gap in reaction speed.”
said Lennok, counting to three again and twisting his fingers to the side.
This time, Belver gritted his teeth and raised his eyes upward.
“Because the reaction is delayed by one breath, even when I count to three and move, I inadvertently follow that line. Compensate for it through regular training, and later use horsepower to find the pressure point that doesn’t slow down the most.”
“So you can only find a balance through empirical training….”
“Ask Belita to train you so that you can aim to pass 100 times in a row.”
“A hundred times a hundred times?!”
“I’m going to judge whether you have the aptitude to learn magic based on how quickly you do it.”
“Ugh….”
Belver, unable to refute, quietly backs away and starts training with Belita.
Next to the twins, all the people who received different assignments from Lennok are in agony.
“Ugh…!! X feet!!”
Mila practices placing water droplets that repeatedly fall in front of her nose on the side of her dagger.
[Eugegegegege.]
Manson’s two bodies making strange noises with electrodes plugged into the back of his head.
“Umm….”
Even the appearance of training holding a spear pole in reverse and balancing it with an embarrassed expression.
Jenny watched it from the side and muttered as if it was absurd.
“It’s just that there is no circus troupe.”
“why. Do you want to wear it too?”
“…What assignment are you giving me?”
“nothing.”
Looking at Jenny, who seemed slightly nervous, Lennok laughed.
“When I tried to teach you the magic system in the past, everyone except you showed a rejection reaction. Do you remember?”
“….”
“I’m just trying to see who I think will be able to adjust after that. Of course, you and Felix Ibelin are exceptions.”
After dealing with Madrich Onion, a level 8 warlord, and acquiring the Ouroboros magic system,
Lennok tried to call his acquaintances and briefly teach them the basic principles of the magic system.
However, at a time when most of them vomited and reacted negatively, didn’t Jenny manage to learn the basics of the magic system with ease?
I didn’t know why at the time, but now when I think about who Jenny’s grandfather was, it’s not unconvincing.
Lennok was using this opportunity to try something else that he had put down for a while.
“You mean you can find out your aptitude for magic with just these assignments?”
“Precisely speaking, it gives me time to think about the lack I was unaware of.”
Lennok replied with a smile.
“It will be difficult to solve right now. On the contrary, because of that, it is rather suitable for testing aptitude.”
“I don’t think they make things that difficult for something like that….”
Isn’t it a game that can be played for fun without any magical powers, even to avoid the fingers that Belver was told to do?
However, Felix, who was watching from the side, shook his head instead.
“That’s not it, Jenny. Because they don’t make you do difficult things, they feel more difficult.”
“what?”
“The tasks given by the class are easy for others, but they are so exquisite that you don’t understand why you can’t do it yourself.”
“….”
“It makes you realize problems you were not aware of through a simple test. As for the assignment I gave to Belver, you will understand when you see Mila.”
Felix looked away.
“Mila is an excellent mercenary, but because of her natural flair, she tends to do everything differently.”
“What does that have to do with putting a drop of water on the tip of a knife?”
“It is, in other words, an instinctive avoidance of doing regular tasks the same way. That’s why it’s so difficult to succeed in succession even in the simple task of placing water droplets on a black surface.”
“….”
It was only then that Jenny understood Felix’s words and her expression slightly changed.
“That’s kind of surprising. A mercenary like Camilla has such a psychological problem?”
“Because the higher my skills are, the more I become obsessed with mental routines and psychogenic variables. It probably has a lot to do with Mila’s own erratic fighting style.”
“….”
“Other people do too. A task that is difficult for you, but not difficult for others… … That’s why you rather realize your own deficiency. It’s just as Ban said.”
Felix murmured, stroking his beak curiously.
“The class always says they can’t teach, but I don’t think so. It seems that you are already good enough to receive disciples.”
“Why don’t you use gold lacquer in moderation?”
Despite Lennok’s plaintive reply, Felix tilted his head curiously.
“If your intuition has reached this level, can it be a good teaching just by pointing out the problem… … You are learning one thing.”
“….”
Felix is not entirely wrong.
In fact, the education method Lenok chose was the method he often used when he was an assistant professor at Rabatenon University.
It is more efficient to give simple tasks and make up for weaknesses rather than insisting on teaching difficult magic.
Of course, there is a downside to understanding the problems of each undergraduate student and setting up a customized tutoring method for him.
That level of analysis doesn’t take too long for Lennok.
Lennok had been using the tips he had learned while working as an assistant professor instead of applying them to Yi Jewa and other students who wanted to learn magic from him.
“Um…half?”
Meanwhile, a tired-looking Dylan walked out from inside the mansion and looked around blankly.
Dylan, who came to his senses as he bit the wrestler’s mask, frowned and muttered.
“Why is everyone doing weird things all of a sudden…Are you still dreaming?”
“Dylan woke up sooner than I thought.”
Lennok looked back at him with a somewhat surprised expression.
“Are you feeling okay?”
“…Except for being a little hazy.”
profit!!
Dylan, slumped beside Lennok, opened a beer can rolling nearby.
Dylan gulped down his beer, took a deep breath, and sighed.
“Cool cool!! The beer seems to taste earthy?! Finally my sense of taste is gone-”
Kung!!
At that moment, the lever of the Ascension Gate placed behind Dylan’s back vibrated.
Dylan, who jumped to his feet in surprise, looked at the mechanical box warily.
“…What is this?”
“It seems that he perceives you as a different object than before.”
Lennox smiled and nodded.
“Would you like to try one more time?”
“…Are you okay? I am…“
There will be no such thing as before. I adjusted the output a little after Evelyn’s turn.”
“No matter how much I think about it, it’s unfair… … .”
“Um….”
Dylan, who hesitated for a long time after receiving the definite answer, slowly grabbed the lever and the mechanical box of the Ascension Gate began to shake.
“Oh oh?! magic power… … !”
Dylan, stammering, reached inside the door and grabbed something, then looked back in surprise.
A slightly excited voice that made other people, who had been engrossed in their task for a while, inadvertently look away.
“It’s hard and slippery. It’s just like getting your hands on it. Looks like an artifact… … ?”
Dylan, who can’t hide his excitement even with a hazy look.
I didn’t show it, but was it because I was envious of other people picking out items and sharing them?
It was hard to believe that he passed out after canceling the limiter with Lennok’s help.
“Stop talking nonsense and take it out quickly.”
“okay. Let’s see what kind of storage it is connected to.”
At Mila and Jenny’s urging, Dylan braced his shoulders and raised his arm from the other side of the door.
“Hap…!!”
Inflate both cheeks enough to be visible even through the mask, and smash them as if throwing objects in their hands.
Dylan let out a labored breath, wiped away his sweat, and looked away.
“It must be. It can’t be great… … !!”
“….”
Flutter, pulsate!!
Dylan’s mouth closed tightly as he met eyes with the giant tuna, half of which had been cut off.
Sleek and solid fuselage. A lively fluttering fish. Eyes shaking out of focus.
A meeting too sudden to face in the garden of the mansion rather than in the middle of the sea.
Jenny and Mila sighed simultaneously.
“What are you?”
“I didn’t even expect it from the beginning.”
“Oh no…Why are you fishing for this piece of tuna… … !!”
Dylan screamed in embarrassment, lifting the tuna’s snout.
“Why is this bastard alive with half of his body cut off in the first place?!”
“It is not alive. It only looks that way because it has a preservation technique.”
Lennok, approaching Dylan’s side, looked at the tuna with interest.
“Conditions are necessary to survive even after half of the body is cut off. It would be better to think of it as an object that was processed and preserved as a food ingredient a long time ago.”
“Then the magic I felt….”
“It must have detected the preservation technique hanging on this chunk of tuna.”
Looking at the devastated Dylan, Lennok smiled.
“I must have woken up, so I must have been very hungry.”
“X feet….”
Ignoring Dylan, who couldn’t bear to deny it and was downcast, Lennok looked away.
“Could you get some cooking utensils from the kitchen at Dray Manor?”
“All right. But where do you plan on using it? … .”
“It’s been a long time since Dylan picked out a quality fish, so let’s try grilling it before it goes bad.”
“half? Are you going to bake this?”
Jenny frowned.
Evelyn, who was watching from the side, also asked in surprise.
“You mean you’re going to eat something you don’t even know where it came from? Is it okay to be a wizard?”
“This is a tuna that has undergone a high-level preservation technique to the extent that even half of its body is cut off.”
Lennok laughed and snapped his finger.
“Definitely top-notch ingredients. It is also a very well-preserved item. Don’t you think it’s a waste not to taste it?”
“….”
It must be a very high-quality fish if it is enough to preserve it with a preservation technique.
It is also an object that has been kept so fresh that it is still flapping around even after half of its body has been cut off.
While Jenny and Evelyn pondered for a moment, Felix stepped on Lennoc’s shoulder.
“Listening, there’s not a single word wrong in Van’s words.”
He looked at Lennok with trusting eyes and nodded. Saliva flowed down the bird-headed giant’s beak.
“It’s better to put that creative idea into action right away.”
“Would you wipe the spittle flowing down your beak before speaking?”
Jenny reprimanded Felix with a puzzled expression.
“Anyway, I’m afraid it’s not a bird… … .”
“Are you aware that that is a racist statement?”
Even as Felix said that, he helped Dray get a portable oven and rack out of the kitchen and enthusiastically began preparing the tuna.
Flutter!!
“There is a lot of dust. It doesn’t look like it was used often.”
“It was an item that was stored when I moved into the mansion. I’ve never had it work separately.”
“That won’t work. I will find out right away and prepare everything.”
Without waiting for Lennok’s answer, the bird-headed giant hurries to clean the oven and prepares the tuna for roasting.
The taste of this well-preserved Old World tuna seemed irresistible.
“Come to think of it, when did you move into this mansion?”
I asked as if I remembered Jenny, who was sipping a glass while looking at Felix.
“I’ve heard that you’ve changed your address several times, but I didn’t know you’d bring me to the mansion.”
“Half a year has passed. Because a lot of things happened.”
Lennok replied, checking the little rope Belita had brought and making a note in the ledger.
“And I plan to move again in the near future. I already looked for candidates.”
“…ah?”
“okay?”
Jenny and Evelyn muttered with a somewhat confused look at those words.
“I have no intention of staying in one place for long. It was possible that I invited you because I was planning to leave after this job was over.”
Using Darby’s ability, it is not difficult to find a property suitable for Lennok’s desired conditions.
There is a lot of unused space left in the mansion, which is rather cumbersome to manage.
Excluding the lab, there was a lot of space, so it was rather the idea of separating the lab from the house.
“Hmm, that’s a bit disappointing. It would be nice if we could gather like this in the future.”
Mila, who was listening to the story from the side, picked up a skewer from the table and said,
“It’s a place, doesn’t it matter if it’s not necessarily my address? It is only a matter of time and opportunity.”
Lennok replied and stood up from his seat.
“Looks like you’ve extracted all the data you need. Let’s finish off by eating the tuna that Felix grilled.”
Lennok raised his glass and smiled, pointing to the other side of the garden where the smoke was rising.
Even the sublime passion of the artisan could be seen in the face of Felix, who had the oven partially dismantled and put the tuna upside down and grilled it.
“Wouldn’t you remember it forever if you went back without even mentioning it?”
* * *
-Jenny started to be interested in the maritime business.
“Right.”
– They say they are trying to significantly increase the proportion of seafood products among the products currently in circulation.
“I get it.”
– No half. No matter who sees it, it’s just because they want to eat tuna. let it dry!!
Dylan shouted in frustration over the phone.
-There is no one who can present a different opinion on the business plan other than you… … !!
The mercenary’s voice resounded across the expansive laboratory.
But Lennok didn’t care, and with his head down, he slowly moved his hand to finish the work in progress.
Chi profit… … !!
Pure white magical power rises like smoke, and then it turns into a hard crystal and falls to the floor.
“Whoa….”
Lennok, who had completed one round of work, finally straightened his back and exhaled a low breath.
Lennok, sitting on the workbench with a cigarette in his mouth, answered Dylan’s words belatedly.
“The maritime business is one of the promising businesses in the Balkans that has been continuously invested. As the city is located not far from the sea, there is a high possibility of making money by solving the environment of the undeveloped district.”
Lennok, who had smoked and extinguished the embers, put down the cigarette and said,
“Whatever the occasion, I don’t see it as negative.”
-That’s true, but… … .
Dylan said as if he was unfair.
– Jenny is trying to send us to the sea with an agent for a business partnership… … !!
“….”
– At this rate, it looks like it will be sold to a shrimp fishing boat. please help ban-!!
“It must be a tuna fishing boat.”
Lennok, who had been listening to Dylan’s desperate cries, hit the end call button to end the call.
Maybe the tuna I ate at the party that day changed the trajectory of someone’s life a little.
However, it seems that Evelyn and Jenny liked the taste of tuna much more than they thought to think about starting a business together with an agent.
“…Eveline must have been a vegetarian.”
It is said that there are several categories for vegetarians, so isn’t it a violation of values?
Lennok, engrossed in meaningless thought, immediately put his thoughts aside and stood up.
After all, isn’t it Dylan’s karma for picking tuna at Ascension Gate?
Whether or not Dylan was sold to a deep-sea fishing boat was Jenny’s business.
Right now, I had to finish the work I started in the lab.
“How about Darby output adjustment?”
[Spatial interference 3%. Time ship distance 0.2%. It’s still ridiculous.]
Darby answered through the lab’s speakers as if he was dumbfounded.
[To the point of pushing and eating the space-time around you little by little just by existing there… … The consciousness body of the transcendental body is really strange.]
A workbench rising in the middle of the laboratory.
A white jewel surrounded by countless mechanical arms and radar projectors floats on the workbench and rotates slowly.
break-up break-up… … !!
The illusion that the time and space around the jewel is distorted little by little, fragmented, and shattered.
It’s just a little bit too feeble, but just by existing, it intervenes in the timeline of reality and pushes away the space-time around it.
“Yeah. It’s a really strange thing.”
Lennok looked at the wave of jewels and slowly took out an old pocket watch from his bosom.
“So I guess there’s one more thing we can try.”
